PICS Seminar with Sam Schoenholz of Google Brain

MEAM Seminar: “Confined Curved Shells and their Elaborate Conformations”

Curved shells, when confined, can deform to a broad assortment of large scale shapes and smaller scale wrinkling and folding patterns quite unlike what produced by their flat counterparts. The […]

MEAM Seminar: “Data-driven Discovery of Governing Physical Laws in Engineering, Physics, and Biology”

A major challenge in the study of dynamical systems is that of model discovery: turning data into models that are not just predictive, but provide insight into the nature of […]

MEAM Seminar: “Wrinkles, Spaghetti, and Knots”

Buckling, twisting and fracture are ubiquitous phenomena that, despite having been studied for centuries, still pose many interesting conceptual and practical challenges. In this talk, I will summarize recent theoretical […]

MEAM Seminar: “Interfacial Soft Matter”

Surface tension plays a critical role in a wide range of biological, environmental, technological and geophysical settings. In this talk, I will present three different problems dealing with interfacial soft […]
